Filled minced meat muffins

Spread the love

Ingredients for 8 servings:

  • 500 g minced meat, mixed
  • 4 slice(s) toast bread, (or 1 roll or 4-5 tbsp breadcrumbs)
  • 2 onions
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp paprika powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper, ground
  • ½ cup ketchup (curry)
  • some oil

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Total time approx. 1 hour 30 minutes

Soak the bread (toast) in hot water. Peel the onions, dice them very finely, and sauté them briefly (I sautéed them on a plate in the microwave!). Squeeze out the bread, knead it well with the minced meat, eggs, diced onion, and spices. Season to taste and add more seasoning if necessary. Grease a 24-hole mini muffin tin. Press some of the minced meat mixture into the holes, making a depression in the center. Add a little curry ketchup to each hole. Spread the remaining minced meat mixture over the top and press firmly. If you don’t have a muffin tin, form small balls, make a depression with your thumb, fill it with ketchup, and seal the balls with the minced meat mixture. Caution: if the balls or mini muffins aren’t sealed properly, some of the ketchup will sizzle out during baking! Bake at 220°C (top/bottom heat) for about 30 minutes on the second-to-lowest rack. Let cool slightly before removing from the pan. Great finger food for parties. This batch makes 32 mini muffins for me! Depending on the ketchup you choose, the mini muffins taste different every time!
